coin asylum New Member Australia 9 Posts	Posted 05/20/2011 09:25 am Found this is a hoard I bought today at auction, how do you think it was done. The reverse has fully raised detail, but the obverse is as flat as a tack. Oval shape. Quite interesting actually. Ideas? Sorry about the poor images, took them quickly.

drdave Pillar of the Community United States 721 Posts	Posted 05/20/2011 10:24 am Kind of looks like it went through one of those penny souvenir machines, except not to the same extent, of course. Something similar perhaps? Report this Post to the Staff
zic Valued Member Australia 121 Posts	Posted 05/20/2011 10:52 am Probably not, because the reverse details are quite good, in case of souvenit press, both sides should be defected. Report this Post to the Staff
